Information regarding inventory for subsequent years is as follows: Date Inventory at Current Prices Current Price Index December 31, 2020 $1271000 108 December 31, 2021 1417000 126 December 31, 2022 1623000 131 What is the cost of the ending inventory at December 31, 2020 under dollar-value LIFO
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Crane corporation
Ending inventory
2019 $1,120,000
2020 $1,271,000/1.08 = $1,176,852
Ending inventory [$1,120,000+ (1,176,852 - $1,120,000)× 1.08]
= [$1,120,000 + $61,400]
= $1,181,400
2021 $1,417,000/1.26 = $1,124,603
2022 $1,623,000/1.31 = $1,238,931
Ending inventory [$1,124,603 + ($114,328 × 1.31)]
= $1,124,603 + $149,770
= $1,274,373
Therefore, the cost of the ending inventory at December 31, 2020 under dollar value LIFO would be $1,274,373

Naranjo Company designs industrial prototypes for outside companies. Budgeted overhead for the year was $260,000, and budgeted direct labor hours were 20,000. The average wage rate for direct labor is expected to be $25 per hour. During June, Naranjo Company worked on four jobs. Data relating to these four jobs follow:
Job 39 Job 40 Job 41 Job 42
Beginning balance $23,700 $34,600 $17,000 $0
Materials requisitioned 18,900 21,400 8,350 12,000
Direct labor cost 10,000 18,500 3,000 2,900
Overhead is assigned as a percentage of direct labor cost. During June, Jobs 39 and 40 were completed; Job 39 was sold at 120 percent of cost. (Naranjo had originally developed Job 40 to order for a customer; however, that customer was near bankruptcy and the chance of Naranjo being paid was growing dimmer. Naranjo decided to hold Job 40 in inventory while the customer worked out its financial difficulties. Job 40 is the only job in Finished Goods Inventory.) Jobs 41 and 42 remain unfinished at the end of the month.
Required:
a. Calculate the overhead rate based on direct labor cost.
b. Set up a simple job-order cost sheet for all jobs in process during June.

Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Budgeted overhead for the year = $260,000
Budgeted direct labor hours = 20,000
Direct labor rate = $25 per hour
Total budgeted direct labor cost = $500,000 ($25 * 20,000)
Predetermined overhead rate, based on direct labor cost
= $260,000/$500,000 * 100 = 52% or $0.52

Each of the items below must be considered in preparing a statement of cash flows for Baskerville Co. for the year ended December 31, 2017. For each item, state how it should be shown in the statement of cash flows for 2017. (a) Issued bonds for $200,000 cash. (b) Purchased equipment for $150,000 cash. (c) Sold land costing $20,000 for $20,000 cash. (d) Declared and paid a $50,000 cash dividend.
Answer:
a. Issued bonds for $200,000 cash ⇒ Cash inflow from Financing Activities.
Financing activities refer to those that bring in capital to the company. This capital comes in the form of equity and long term liabilities like bonds. Money coming in from bonds will therefore be an inflow here.
b. Purchased equipment for $150,000 cash. ⇒ Cash Outflow from Investing Activities
Investing activities have to do with the fixed assets of the company as well as investments into the securities of other companies. Money is leaving the company to purchase the fixed asset here -equipment - so this is an outflow.
c.Sold land costing $20,000 for $20,000 cash. ⇒ Cash inflow from Investing Activities.
As already stated, Investing activities relate to fixed assets. Selling a fixed asset such as land will therefore bring in cash from investing activities.
d. Declared and paid a $50,000 cash dividend⇒ Cash Outflow from Financing activities
As financing activities relate to equity, dividends will be a cash outflow from here because it is cash that is leaving the company to go to equity holders.
For the coming year, Cleves Company anticipates a unit selling price of $100, a unit variable cost of $60, and fixed costs of $480,000.
Required:
1. Compute the anticipated break-even sales in units.
2. Compute the sales (units) required to realize a target profit of $240,000.
3. Construct a cost-volume-profit chart, assuming maximum sales of 20,000 units within the relevant range. From your chart, indicate whether each of the following sales levels would produce a profit, a loss, or break-even.
$1,200,000 SelectBreak-evenLossProfitItem 3
$1,000,000 SelectBreak-evenLossProfitItem 4
$800,000 SelectBreak-evenLossProfitItem 5
$400,000 SelectBreak-evenLossProfitItem 6
$200,000 SelectBreak-evenLossProfitItem 7
4. Determine the probable income (loss) from operations if sales total 16,000 units.
Solution :
1. The break even sales in units is given by :
Break even sales in units = [tex]$\frac{\text{fixed cost}}{\text{contribution per unit}}$[/tex]
Where, contribution per unit = selling price per unit - variable cost per unit
The anticipated break even sales in units of Cleaves company in the coming year is :
Break even sales in units = [tex]$\frac{480,000}{40}$[/tex]
Contribution per unit = $ 100 - $ 60
= $ 40
So the company anticipates its breakeven sales at 12,000 units.
2. In order tot earn profit the sales generated should overcome the breakeven point. The desired profit is $240,000, the sales required to earn the desired profit can be computed using the formula :
Desired sales in units = [tex]$\frac{\text{fixed cost + desired cost}}{\text{contribution per unit}}$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{480,000+240,000}{40}$[/tex]
= 18,000 units
Thus, the sales in units required to earn a profit of $ 240,000 are 18,000 units.
3. The sales in excess of the breakeven point would yield a profit on the contrary the sales below the breakeven point would result in a loss.
In the given sales in dollar = breakeven sales in units x selling price per unit
= 12,000 x 100
= $ 1,200,000
∴ the sales above $1,200,000 would result in a profit whereas the sales below $1,200,000 would result in loss.
The cost volume profit chart below indicates the profit, loss, breakeven at different sales levels :
Sales levels Result
1,200,000 Breakeven
1,000,000 Loss
800,000 Loss
400,000 Loss
200,000 Loss
4. The income on sale of 16,000 units is computed below :
Particulars Amount is $
Sales 1,600,000
Less : variable cost 960,000
Contribution 640,000
Less : Fixed cost 480,000
Profit 160,000
The break-even sales in units are calculated as follows:
What is Break Even Point ?Breakeven unit sales =
In this case, contribution per unit equals selling price per unit minus variable cost per unit.
The Cleaves Company's estimated break-even unit sales for the upcoming year are:
Breakeven unit sales =
Contribution per unit equals $100 minus $60.
= $ 40
The business therefore projects 12,000 units as its breakeven sales.
(2) 2. Sales must exceed the breakeven point in order to create a profit. The sales needed to achieve the desired profit, which is $240,000, can be calculated using the formula:
Ideally, sales would equal
= 18,000 units
Thus, the sales in units required to earn a profit of $ 240,000 are 18,000 units.
(3) 3. Sales beyond the breakeven threshold would result in a profit; sales below the breakeven point, on the other hand, would result in a loss.
Sales in dollars for the given period equal breakeven sales in units times selling price per unit.
= 12,000 x 100
= $ 1,200,000
Sales that exceed $1,200,000 generate a profit, whilst sales that go below that threshold generate a loss.
The following cost volume profit chart shows the profit, loss, and breakeven points at various sales levels:
Resulting sales levels
Breakeven is 1,000,000
1,000,000 Loss
800,000 Loss
400,000 Loss
200,000 Loss
4. The earnings from the sale of 16,000 units are calculated as follows:
Particulars The amount is $

A. Calculate Basic EPS (carry calculations to 2 decimal places).
B. Show your calculations for the numerator and denominator effect of each of the above convertible securities.
C. From your calculations in Part B, complete the schedule to calculate the dilution index of each convertible security, then indicate the ranking (most dilutive = 1) of each convertible security.
D. Using the indexes above to incrementally evaluate the dilutive effect, calculate diluted earnings per share in the space provided on the answer sheet. Show the DEPS calculation at each incremental stage, and carry the calculation to 2 decimal places. CIRCLE the DEPS number that would be displayed in the financials.
Answer:
Explanation:
A.)
The Basic EPS can be determined by using the formula:
[tex]\mathtt{Basic \ EPS = \dfrac{Net \ income \ attributabe \ to\ common \ stock \ holders }{\text{common stock outstanding throughout the year}} }[/tex]
[tex]\text{Given Net income = \$2,600,000}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Net income available for common stock holders = }[/tex][tex]\text{ Net income given less dividend}[/tex]
[tex]\text{ to preferred holders of stock}[/tex]
[tex]\mathtt{=$2,600,000 - $100 \times 50000\times 6\%}[/tex]
[tex]=\$2,300,000[/tex]
[tex]\text{Common stock} = $800,000[/tex]
∴
[tex]\mathbf{Basic \ EPS = \dfrac{\$2,300,000}{800,000} }[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{Basic \ EPS = \$2.88 \ per \ common \ stock}[/tex]
B.)
The calculations for the numerator and denominator effect are:
[tex]\text{Calculation of the effect on incremental EPS}[/tex]
Convertible on preferred stock [tex]\mathtt{=\dfrac{500,000 \times 100 \times 6\%}{50000\times 5}}[/tex]
[tex]=1.20[/tex]
Convertible Bond [tex]=\dfrac{500,000 \times 8\%\times 70\%}{\dfrac{500,000}{1000\times 20}}[/tex]
= 2.80
Stock options [tex]= \dfrac{0}{100,000- (100,000\times \dfrac{60}{80})}[/tex]
= 0
Determination of the numerator & denominator effect for each convertible securities shown above are:

Inventory records for Dunbar Incorporated revealed the following:
Date Transaction Number Unit
of Units Cost
Apr. 1 Beginning inventory 550 $2.33
Apr. 20 Purchase 310 2.68
Dunbar sold 560 units of inventory during the month. Ending inventory assuming weighted-average cost would be:__________.
a. $737.
b. $694.
c. $817.
d. $752.
Answer:
a. $737.
Explanation:
The computation of the ending inventory using weighted average cost is shown below:
But before that first determine the average cost per unit
= (Beginning cost + purchase cost) ÷ (Beginning units + purchased units)
= (550 × $2.33 + 310 × $2.68) ÷ (550 units + 310 units)
= ($1,281.5 + $830.8) ÷ (860 units)
= $2.46
Now the ending inventory is
= (860 units - 560 units) × $2.46
= $737

Arlene opens a donut shop that offers plain, glazed, and chocolate donuts, along with fresh coffee. How could Arlene expand her business
with the least risk to her current profits?
A) Hire someone to tell her how to run her shop more efficiently
B) Open several new stores in different cities across the country.
C) Expand her current menu to include other products and flavors.
D) Make television and radio commercials for a national advertising campaign.
Answer:
c because if she opens other stores people might not be interested in the menu
Answer:
(C) Expand her current menu to include other products and flavors.
Explanation: The safer option that would incur lower costs would be for Arlene to expand her store's menu with other products such as water, hot chocolate, and other types of candy. That would be the best alternative because her store already has fixed costs in place, so adding new products would only increase the variable cost and open up new sources of revenue and could be a good source of profit. Conversely, opening new branches, hiring people or advertising would increase costs without opening a new source of revenue.
Fixed expenses consist of $306,000 of common costs allocated to the three products based on relative sales, as well as direct fixed expenses unique to each model of $29,000 (Tingler), $79,400 (Shocker), and $34,700 (Stunner). The common costs will be incurred regardless of how many models are produced. The direct fixed expenses would be eliminated if that model is phased out.
Answer:
Net income for Cawley Company is $65,300.
Explanation:
Stunner and Shocker income will be proportionate to Cawley company since these production lines produce net income more than the minimum threshold. Tingler production line has net income less than minimum threshold and the company may think of shutting this production line.
